I'm so embarrassed that Lamar Thomas ever wore a Dolphins' uniform. Actually, I hated his behavior when he was a Dolphin. He was always one of those idiot recievers that would drop most of what was thrown to him, but when he did make a catch he would jump up and do stupid stuff like making first down signals. However, his remarks during the Miami-FIU game were disgusting. He was fired and he deserved to be fired. Hopefully, this will be the last football related job that he ever has. He needs to go sell used cars or something. If you think I'm overreacting, then read this story. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/footbal...-dolphins-front
I agree. I did not listen to the excuses he had w/ Dan Patrick yesterday. Irvin defending TO earlier this season made my skin crawl; I would have needed beef's excess bags to deal w/ Lamar's "justification"
thats just awful good thing he was kicked off the air... btw I did see when Michael Irvin defended TO and yea it made me sick kinda sad
Here's the irony; There were a group of inner city youths attending this game. The theme was; Be part of a team not a gang.

I'm not sure I understand why Irvin gets brought up into this conversation this way since he came out and blasted Thomas right away, but I really don't want to go too far in actually defending Mr. Irvin

Now that he has kids, he looks at stuff differently. I give him major credit for blasting Lamar, but I wouldn't go as far as to say I believe it 100%. I would assume his powder hobby was also while he had kids.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Cowboy71)</div><div class='quotemain'>I would assume his powder hobby was also while he had kids.</div> bA's rule #2 never assume. Why? Irvin's powder hobby? I din't know he came out to Utah to ski. After all, Winter IMO blows.

Back in '95 he bought a new plane just to fly him back and forth between DFW and SLC when he heard the hills up there were pure snow. Imagine his disappointment when he frozen the right half of his body the first time.
My view on the fight is that "hey, it happens" its a vuiolent sport and I know I would have been in that fight, holding somebody or something but Im not ging to take off my helmet and swing at a dude. Why is eerybody so shocked, we are talking about the "U"
